My Fitness Journey with Lunchbox Diet – Week 8

For the past seven weeks, I have changed my diet and discovered a very convenient way to eat healthy & nutritious food without the hassle of preparing it. I’m on my Week 8 (last week) with Lunchbox Diet. You’ll be amazed by my results after 8 weeks with LBD.

This has to be my favorite this week. I personally love bacon and LBD did not disappoint. Bistro Bacon Salad with Pears had me at hello. I felt like it was a light under the tunnel. As the song Wolf Bite goes, “I wanna get my life right! Will you show me the way?” This salad really did show the way!

I’m no longer craving for fatty and fried food. I said to myself that we (me and fatty food) will never getting back together – like EVER. Kidding! Maybe in the future but not now! I was quite surprise with the LBD’s version of Beef Caldereta. I never knew a classic dish can be this healthy!

I felt I was really doing well this week. I kept on coming back to those fond memories where I can see myself competing at my best in the tennis court. And yes, the smaller shirt sizes! I was smiling the whole day because I know I’m in the right track.

I am finally embracing myself doing a full diet without rice for the rest of the year (even on cheat days). I personally liked Roasted Squash Pancakes for this day. I never knew squash can be fun on pancakes. It was so yummy!

MISSES: Baked Plantain Fries (I wish there was less cinnamon flavor and crispier version but it was good)

During the whole duration of the program, I was able to lose 26 lbs (approx 12 kgs) for 8 weeks. Not bad from a foodie who loves to eat and dine out. It was really challenging. I really have to give up a lot of things such as sweets, soft drinks, junk foods and RICE! I had cheat days and I didn’t deprived or starved myself. I always reward myself for accomplishing my goals for the week. For example, if I lose 2-3 lbs per week, I would treat myself with a good bar of dark chocolates or a medium sized bacon cheeseburger. It’s all about portions, calories and physical activity. If I ate too much, I made sure I burn them in the gym or in the tennis court. I frequently go to the gym. Maybe 3-4 times a week then twice a week in the tennis court. LBD taught me discipline again. It’s something I lost the last few months especially on fitness and food. I also learned how to manage my time better. I remember I was really lousy to go to the gym but now, I make sure I attend all my sessions. I even do weekends! It was just a matter of mindset and dedication.

Thank you Lunchbox Dietfor giving me the opportunity to be at my best again. I’m really happy with the results and I would definitely recommend it to my friends and family. This is the best preparation for my comeback tournament in Men’s Singles next week. I would really like to thank all the staff, nutritionists and the personnel behind LBD. You guys made it possible in all your little ways. Again, thank you.

Interesting company (lunchbox diet)! I really like this concept. If they have a full-on vegetarian option I might even be interested in trying it. My problem with most diets is they all require you to eat some type of meat. I’m not a vegan and I’m not out protesting the harm of animals or anything, but if a piece of meat touches my tongue- I’m going to gag and be really sick!

I like how diverse your meals were and definitely you didn’t feel hungry at all during they day as they look quite filling as well. I can imagine how hard it was at the beginning to give up fat foods, as I have given up sugar, when the body goes through a tough detox for a few days.

Congratulations of your fitness journey! 26 lbs is amazing!! I’ve never heard of Lunchbox Diet but it seems like there’s a lot of variety with what you eat and that the program actually works is fantastic. Congrats again 🙂
